Nossan and Shafir will speak one-on-one for about an hour, uninterrupted, before opening the conversation to questions from the audience. Two artists at the height of their careers will reflect on how concepts such as tradition, discipline, quality, and practice operate within their work. At the same time, they will contemplate the artist’s spirit and its drive toward mystery, challenge, and style. The intimate conversation may allow them to linger over their “unfinished business” with the body, dancers, and the independent dance field. This conversation about art may reveal the immense desire to create, inspire us, and uncover something of the secret of live performance.
